common-template-copier
common-template-copier is GitLab’s standard project template, built on the
Copier project template generator. It scaffolds
new projects with the three-layer LabKit v2 service skeleton, a CI pipeline built
on common-ci-tasks, and the Caproni and Runway configuration needed for local
development and production deployment. Template updates propagate to onboarded
projects via Renovate and copier update.
Primary contribution to Theseus: every Theseus service starts from this template. It is where the platform’s conventions are encoded at scaffolding time, so a new service is production-shaped from its first commit. The Get Started tutorial walks through using it.
